good drive

I also have Ekeler. I am playing Breece Hall. Hoping Herbert doesn't have an Allen like meltdown here. Clinging to a 10 point lead.

Elam has shown me more pick ability than Dane & Benford have ever shown. Now that isn't to say Elam is fundamentally sound but he makes plays.

Regretting benching Stroud and starting Herbert. I pulled a McDermott.

To be fair the defense has created 1 turnover the past 4 games, while the offense has turned over the ball 7 times.

we can always play Elam.

It’s time to IR some guys.

I think it’s McDermott demanding slow drives to keep his defense off the the field. That’s complimentary football. Unfortunately we don’t have the 90s Cowboys OL and bellwether RB.

Not enough complimentary run offense. And the defense is giving up a ton of early TD drives.

Early game picks typically don’t bode well for Allen.

The tablet doesn’t show Allen’s POV. Plus Allen leads league in turnovers since 2018, so no reason to dwell on a sour subject.

Agreed that we should put Harty in at RB and have him run routes.

I think our defense needs to practice corralling scrambling QBs.

Collingsworth has a thing for 16 year olds.

Burrow doesn’t force passes into cover 2 shells as often as Allen does. If it’s a pass to Davis in the gap, it’s likely not going to be completed, so I question why take the shot? A turnover is more likely than Davis hauling in a perfect touch pass. Allen to Davis tonight was off, and I think it had something to do with the Bengals pressing Davis right at the line and eliminating him getting a free release.

Bengals looked good tonight, they are stingy with the ball and score early. I think the Bills inability to create more than 3 points on drives 2-8 was the game. You can’t have 7 drives in a row that yield 3 points and 2 turnovers. Clean up the turnovers, and it’s a tie game. Assume the Bengals finish as a Wild Card, it’s probably going to be a challenge to see them going on the road and beating KC, Jax, Baltimore. Miami clearly can be beaten by Cincy. So far as overhyping the Bengals, I just don’t think they have the running game, similar to Buffalo that can win a road playoff game. It will take a nearly flawless passing game from Burrow and turnovers. Tua will give them that. Mahomes, Lawrence and Jackson will likely not give the Bengals those chances.

If Allen hands the ball off 1st and 2nd down then he can’t get hurt.

Beane would never allow that, plus Daboll could crush Allen’s bad habits developed in his absence.

If the weather is crap, which it is in Buffalo come playoff time then 12 personnel makes sense. That said, being that we are likely to be the #7 at best, then we will be playing in pass friendlier climates.

Before the game if someone told you this: Drive 1 TD. Drive 9 TD. Drives 2-8, punt, pick, punt, end of half, FG, punt, fumble. 7 drives 3 points, 2 turnovers, 3 points against off turnovers. You would likely conclude the Bills would have been blown out. The fact it was a game with 3 minutes to go shows just how close this team was to winning. Unfortunately another game with zero defensive turnovers and too many turnovers.

I think they got caught not having a plan last drive 1 and went with the off-season installed offense to try and manhandle the Bengals. The OL has been upgraded but looks much better in 11 than 12.

The offense was bogged down in 2021. The team was 7-6. The difference is Miami, and the Jets are better than 2021. On the bright side the Bills have a better running back Cook > Singletary, and tight end Kincaid > Knox. The issue is the defense is banged up. Our starting field position is worse and our defense is being drove on resulting in zero margin for error for the O to operate. All the more reason for the offense to play uptempo and play more aggressive.

Kincaid is damn good. Imagine Diggs, Kincaid and oh I don’t know, Marvin Harrison Jr. Now that would be dynamic.

Wasn’t this the case in 2021 after the wind game? Wasn’t Allen 7-6 outside looking in. Suppose we go 2-2 next 4, same record same situation.

Allen isnt a god? Allen can’t heal like Jesus Christ? White, Milano & Jones would be healthy if Mahomes/Lawrence/Jackson/Stroud/Burrow was our QB. Coz they are gods.
